Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

A friend of mine had HIS unemployment check direct deposited to his girlfriend's banking account. He held the card and used it to withdrawl his money. He had lost the card and his g/f and he had sepperated. Well, there were checks she left behind at their house, and he gained consent from her to write them to get his money. He, not having a valid driver's licences nor ID, he wrote the checks to me and I took them and cashed them for him, so he could get his money. The bank spotted that the signatures did not match and called the police. I am now charged with 1st degree forgery? What should I do?
